Question for timwilky
I know that we have to respect one's creeds and religious beliefs, but don't you think this is taking things a bit too far?!
Disclaimer: this is purely intended to laugh a bit at the great lancastrian inventions of all times, not to start another religious discussion about beliefs! Please! |

That's not a bit too far at all.
That's what happens when you take the line, step over it, rub it out, and draw a new one 200 miles before the old one. WAY to f*ing far IMO. (Note: No, I'm not racist, I have a lot of asian friends - one of whom signed up to the KKK website with his real life personal details - but I mean, c'mon!) |

I saw that in the local newspaper a few days ago, Now my wife works within the health service at Chorley (One of the hospitals mentioned) and I showed it to her. She laughed her head off. She works on a rehab ward, for stroke patients. Most of whom when they first enter her ward are incapable of walking, are incontinent etc. Her response was along the lines of how the bloody hell are we expected to clean anyone wearing that thing. I personally think this is taking PC to an unacceptable level. I am sure even the most devout would accept that the teaching of the koran can be otherwise interpreteted whilst the believer is ill in hospital etc.

Um, I think that the thing to remember here people is that the NHS is a "service provider". It must cater for it's constituents (if that's the right word). It cannot discrimiate.
If, for whatever reason, potential patients will not be treated, then that issue must be addressed. They must cater for everyone. I don't see a problem with it, if it means that someone doesn't die in the UK in the 21C from a preventable illness. We all pay taxes. |

At least the NHS owns the patent so the profits will go towards providing better drugs and a better service.
Wow, a pig just flew past my window! |
